Jenny Scheinman:Live @ The Village Vanguard on NPR

Wednesday October 29, 2008

WBGO, October 27, 2008 – In recent years, Jenny Scheinman has found her own voice, in both the figurative and literal sense: Earlier this year, she released her recorded debut as a country singer. But in the broader sense, Scheinman violinist, composer and, yes, vocalist has been hard at work developing a uniquely rich, earthy approach to improvisation agnostic of style. In countless configurations in and around New York, and on a new instrumental album, she applies her broad palette of American music through the filters of an adventurous jazz aesthetic. She’ll do the same with her quartet, featuring standout pianist Jason Moran, at the Village Vanguard, in a concert broadcast live on air by WBGO and live online here at NPR Music. The show takes place Wednesday, Oct. 29, at 9 p.m. ET.
